Dead quiet exhaust? With Pacesetter long tubes, 3" ORY and no cats or resonators, what would be the quietest decently flowing exhaust?
I have an SLP resonator, and have no problem slipping it after the ORY if it will help quieten the exhaust.
I am looking for an exhaust that will come awake at mid to WOT.
I know with a 112LSA cam its not going to be dead smooth, but as quiet as can be.
I was looking at Magnaflow, if I can find a used one, or Hooker Aerochamber (love the old school deep sound it produces).

Cutouts=
I heard that the magnaflow catbacks are pretty loud. But I did hear a procharged car with a magnaflow catback but had a spintech mffler to replace the magnaflow and it was quiet and just sounded mean
My magnaflow muffler is really nice, but I hate the rasp it makes when I down shift or use the motor to slow down

I'll agree with the Hooker Aerochamber post above. Definitely docile at idle but sounds delicious at WOT. Not to mention it is one of the least expensive full cat-backs out there.

I found one here for about 110$ with tips and mandrel bent pipes, I might just get it and throw the SLP resonator in the middle.

I was bullshitting on the stock exhaust and cutout lol. Imo get the hooker aerochamber, thats my next purchase! Magnaflow is nice for the money, but it's raspy at certain rpm's, wich is why Im ditching the flowjunk! hopefully pick up a couple more ponies too...

I already had a flowmaster and liked its sound, but it only had a 1500-2500 sweetspot, and then was crap otherwise.
I think the hooker aero is going on my car next. Will ring up the guy and go pick it up!

I think the hooker would be a nice choice. I have heard a few of those on youtube and they sound sweet. I'm still deciding on new mufflers for my new setup, magnaflows are nice, but they are raspy but a different raspyness than the flowmasters.
Spintech would be nice, but I heard the mufflers are really heavy.
Theres alot of choices out there, but it comes down to personal preference I guess.

This is my car with just a drive by. Pacesetter longtubes/ORY, Hooker aero catback. If you're just puttin around town, its nice and low and not loud at all.

I like the deep throaty rumble of the Aerochamber, it sounds really mean! I am picking up a muffler from a local guy, he is also a member on our forum.
Would placing the SLP resonator help reduce rasp? I wanted to originally install a flexible resonator.

i have a 4" with two bulets in the y and a hooker maxflo, sounds pretty mild for the motor i have. if you dont mind having no tailpipes, run a big single muffler with a turndown, i think they sound alot better than the stock crossover style.

Otherwise, I would be running open headers with a pipe flowing under the doors like the Viper RT/10
+1 on the Hooker catback. I don't have longtubes, but I did run it without cats for a few days waiting for new magnaflow cats to come in. It's perfect with the cats to me. It was still mild without cats compared to most exhausts, but sounded completely badass. It is pretty mild at normal throttle, but really speaks up when you put your foot in it.
